This is more I learned. Yucca Mountain's Other Story by Toby Eglund MARCH 28, 2002. Senator Harry Reid, a Nevada Democrat, along with Nevada Governor Kenny Guinn, a Republican, has been doing the rounds of talk shows and press conferences to oppose the Bush-endorsed proposal to house nuclear waste at a site in Yucca Mountain, about 90 miles north-west of Las Vegas. According to Reid, the 70,000 tons of radioactive waste generated by the nation's nuclear power plants that is to be stored there, is vulnerable to terrorist attacks during trucking. Due to certain geographical factors, it may also contaminate ground water during storage. SiouxPal :•)
